Crappie, crappie, crappie and more crappie. Fished Tuesday - Friday and ended up cleaning 93 crappie and 2 bluegills. All caught on jig & minnow. C&R'ed some largemouth, but nothing of any great size.
The dominant crappie year class run 9 - 10 or so inches. Caught one older class than ran 13'' and a few of a younger class that I guesstimate around 6''. Did not keep any of those to measure.
Tried still fishing for a bit with red worms but all I was catching was 4 - 5'' gills.
Crappies:
Gills:
The 9 inch was caught in deeper water, notice the bulging eyes.
Cleaned out some seaweed to clear out the dock area. Brought 4 garbage bags worth back to mulch my tomato plants
